Come dine with me!…

The Mayor of Erewash, Councillor Mary Hopkinson, is inviting local residents to join her at the annual Charity Civic Dinner.

The prestigious dinner is one of the major fundraising events in the civic calendar and residents and local businesses are once again invited to join the Mayor for the event, which this year will be held at the Erewash Valley Golf Club at Stanton by Dale on Friday 20 April.

The main entertainment will be provided by Acoustic Union, a four piece band from the East Midlands who perform acoustic arrangements of pop and rock classics along with their own material of bluegrass, instrumentals and traditional songs.

The evening will begin with a wine reception at 7.15pm followed by dinner at 8pm, with the dress code of cocktail or long evening dresses for the ladies and dinner jackets or lounge suits for the men.

Tickets are on sale now, with money raised going to the Mayor’s chosen charities – Sight Support Derbyshire, Alzheimer’s charities, Ben’s Den and the Canaan Trust – at the end of her year in office.
The Mayor of Erewash, Councillor Mary Hopkinson, says:
“I look forward to welcoming guests to this year’s dinner which will be a wonderful occasion to enjoy with residents, colleagues, friends and family. It is a civic tradition and I do hope that local people will support this event and help raise as much money as possible for well-deserving charities which are close to my heart.”

Tickets are £35 each for the four course meal, welcome drink and entertainment and are available from the Civic Office at Ilkeston Town Hall. For more details, please contact Sue Dunkley, Civic Support Officer – email [email protected] or telephone 0115 9071115.
